Parking in Venice fills up quickly, so start your day early. Come early to find street parking!

The Department of Beaches and Harbors manages the 3 major parking lots in Venice. Parking fees are used to clean and sanitize the beaches and to insure that facilities are properly maintained. For parking rate information, or to report a broken machine, please call Modern Parking Inc. at 310-821-1081.

PAY AND DISPLAY EQUIPMENT:
The pay and display equipment accepts Visa and Mastercard credit cards as well as $1 and $5 bills, and quarters, dimes and nickels for payment, and they do not give change. One payment is good for one vehicle per entry per day. Cars entering the parking lot early in the morning before the attendant arrives must still pay for a parking permit and display it properly.

PARKING LOT INFO:

Free parking is available for vehicles displaying a legal disabled placard or license plate on non-holiday weekdays at lots that are either staffed or un-gated.

No overnight parking is permitted.

Overnight parking for Recreational Vehicles is available only at Dockweiler Beach Recreational Vehicle Park.

PRIVATE PARKING BY THE BEACH

There are private parking lots near the beach near Windward Ave. These private lots can cost anywhere between $5-$30 per day. Be sure to state clearly how long you will be staying for and make sure the rate applies for the full time of the visit.
